Hi everyone, I'm so glad I found this community where I can relate with others. I met my BF online about a year ago, unintended. I'm in the US and he's in Lebanon. Both of us have what you could say is an 'acquired taste' personality, so we immediately clicked. He's never been here before but has applied for a visa and his interview is in a few weeks. We plan to marry after, assuming all goes well with the visit. We're both losing our minds right now, to say the least, about the visa approval. He will keep applying of course, but it's rather expensive with his income. I guess that's it for now and I look forward to getting to know everyone better.

LOL! I don't want to completely give myself away for Google to index, but I live in the largest concentrated area of Arabs outside of the middle east so I definitely hear you. I just love it! Oddly enough though, he's pretty "Americanized" and doesn't like it muchOriginally posted by Verojoon View PostWow! Sounds like you have a fascinating story!!
